It makes a loud clunking/whining noise, I still have it on the car though till I get a new rear diff, its been less loud lately though



Most probably lol sigh



Too pricey for me atm
Have you tried changing the fluid in it, that may fix the problem?

Have you tried replacing the oil yet? My X3 was acting up, dealer said i needed a new transfer case, replaced the oil instead and everything has been fine for almost 6 months now.

My Ride: 2006 530i premium and sport package. all stock for now... :/
Default

now that you mention it, my drive line is becoming more and more clunky, ore than the usual. i just broke 100k miles and ever since then i have noticed that when it put it to the floor my tranny instead of goin 6-3 it goes 6-5-4-3 then gets up and goes also its feeling a bit more like it doesnt want to jump into gear under normal driving. maye time to put the old mare out to pasture? also why not try and put a dif from an m5 or even a 550i on your car, if your worried about acceleration, theyre all fast my friend.
